Nigerian
presidential poll has been won by Muhammadu Buhari, in the country's first
election victory by the opposition. His opponent, Goodluck Jonathan, has
conceded defeat and called Gen Buhari to congratulate him on his victory.

Gen Buhari was
ahead of Mr Jonathan by at least three million votes.

Observers have
generally praised the election but there have been allegations of fraud, which
some fear could lead to protests and violence. This is a hugely significant
moment in Nigeria's history - never before has a sitting president lost an
election, the BBC's Will Ross reports from Abuja.

For the first
time, many Nigerians feel they have the power to vote out a government that is
not performing well, our correspondent adds.
